Sparkling shiny, like the smile of a movie star!

§ June 10th, 2009 § Filed under ideas § Tagged , § No Comments

Who wouldn’t like to get whiter teeth? That’s obviously all the rage lately, and all the movie stars are doing it (although arguably some of those tend to over do, and the result is oftentimes just too white for comfort). I received brochures from this Atlanta cosmetic dentistry on the mail today, including a little whiteness chart. And I should say… I really had no idea my teeth were almost yellow! It’s actually embarrassing, but not really much of a surprise considering all the cigarettes and coffee I usually take. Regardless, I had no idea I feel so low on the white chart, and now I’m thinking maybe it’s time to do something about it.

With that in mind, I was looking around the Internet for more information – including alternative therapies, whitening tips and such. But after browsing around for one hour or so, I think the only fast and reliably procedure simply involves getting help from a cosmetic dentist. And well, that’s probably what I’m going to do, but still I thought it might be a good idea to write a post on this issue, and maybe one of you readers will feel like sharing his / hers personal experiences on the matter… maybe put forth some hints… anyone?

Why it’s better to buy a furnace in the summer?

§ June 10th, 2009 § Filed under ideas § Tagged , § No Comments

There’s much to gain from thinking out of the box! Here’s a good example : http://www.woodoutdoorfurnace.net/. So, at this point you might be going… “what sense does it make to think about purchasing a furnace when the summer is just around the corner?” Granted, no one needs a furnace in the hot summer (not unless it doubles as barbecue) – but just read me through and it will all make good sense.

Think about it, for a second: when is the best time to buy winter’s clothes? The summer, of course! That’s because you’ll get access to off-season prices, which sometimes can get really, really low. Just as long as you don’t make a point out of getting the latest fashion pieces, now is the best time to buy new clothes for the NEXT season. Likewise, the same principle applies with furnaces (or just about any item that people usually buy when the winter approaches): right now – is the best time to buy a furnace, because you’ll get access to amazing off-season prices.

Come on good readers, do I really have to spell it out for you? Just take a look a the website I linked up there (which belongs to one of the leading companies operating in this industry), check out those off-season prices, and everything should fall into place!

There’s a reason this chain of hotels has grown so successful in the past few decades, and that’s essentially because they provide quite a highly pleasurable, consistently satisfying experience for a reasonable price!

On the fine line between luck and skill.

Maybe this isn’t something that comes as a surprise to the perceptive readers, but truth of the matter is there’s quite a fine line between amazing skill and outright luck. This is noticeable in many areas of life, but remarkably in sports; how many times have you watched a player make an unbelievable pass or score, which left you wondering how such thing was possible? In fact, oftentimes the very players who achieve such 1-in-a-million shots seem to get a little confused with their skill… or luck! Like this:
